Calyx

Calyx is a unique blend of RTS and base-building gameplay, where you must defend against the relentless spread of the Calyx, a hostile alien plant species. Strategize, expand, and adapt to survive on a barren planet while managing resources, constructing defenses, and unlocking advanced technologies to turn the tide of battle.

Gameplay

In Calyx, you must build and manage a base while fending off the aggressive Calyx. Establish power networks, deploy harvesters to mine ore, and refine resources to earn credits. Construct walls and turrets for defense, or go on the offensive with tanks and artillery. Balance your energy supply carefully to keep critical systems running. Secure rare deposits to enhance your capabilities and connect to booster buildings for additional power and buffs. The game offers multiple strategies—whether you prefer a fortified defense or a mobile assault, the choice is yours.

Story

You are the last survivor aboard an Avaris Corporation deep-space mining vessel, awakened after a century in cryosleep. Dropped onto a desolate planet, you must mine ore under the guidance of the ship's AI while battling the invasive Calyx. As you fight to control the planet, you'll uncover the secrets of these alien lifeforms and attempt to find a way back home. Protect data archives to gain research points, unlock advanced technologies, and face increasingly dangerous Calyx variants.
